Question
I picked stell d oros for there continual blooming, but mine have a beautiful profusion in the spring then nothing.
i live in Indianapolis, I'm afraid they get too much shade.
Secondly, do you have any suggestions for flowering perennials that are happy in the  shade?
Thanks

Answer
You may have hit the nail on the head, my friend: 'too much SHADE'.

Yikes!  How much Sun DO your Stellas get?

They don't need a full blast of dawn to dusk rays.  But they need Sun.  Minimal Shade.

Where's that DEEP Shade coming from?  Something in the way you can move?  Some Trees you can have pruned to remove lower branches and raise the canopy?  Can you move the Stellas?

Just as a point of information, give the new Stella-surpassing 'Stella Supreme' next time you're out Daylily-hunting.  It is said to surprass old Stella in vigor and bloomability.  Old Stella happens by the way to be one of the favorite Daylily cultivars in your state, which is located in Region 2 on the American Daylily Society map and is on the short list of Most Popular Cultivars:

But back to your Sun/Shade situation.  You do have a problem, you realize, if you want Daylilies.  The AHS says it point blank: 'Most daylilies do best in full sun. They will tolerate part-shade conditions, but require a minimum of six hours of direct sun per day.'  Here's the link to all their advice on these splendid Summer plants:

Stella Supreme's LONGER bloom expectancy exceeds the one people once marvelled at from Stella d'Oro.  But no Daylily is going to thrive if you are growing it in Shade, I'm afraid.

Perhaps it's better to grow something different.

Bluestone Perennials has an interactive flower-picker that you can adjust for several variables and view (for most) photos of.  Their prices are eminently reasonable and all come with a guarantee.  Windowshop at their website:

In Zone 5, some of my personal Shade-loving favorites include both foliage and flowering perennials: Alchemilla, Astilbe, Anemone, Doronicum, Helleborus, Lamium and Lobelia.

There are Ferns, Hostas and groundcovers that will also shun a place in the Sun for your Shady situs.

They would be VERY happy with you.
